This thread needs to be bumped after that MSPC arc.
It was amazing and I feel like the show got more life breathed back into it, and it's been great... That was one of the best strings of episodes, um, ever. The fallout of tonight's episode was great too. It's been hilarious and really, really interesting and just amazing stuff for the characters... I never would have thought that the combination of Michael, Pam, and Ryan could have been so amazing.
Very true. I thought the show was getting a bit stale somewhere in the middle of the season (in particular, I remember being surprised at how low on laughs the post-super bowl 1-hour special was) but the Michael Scott Paper Company storyline was SO well done. Haven't laughed so much at a TV show in ages! And then the season finale (company picnic) was a riot, and the season premiere last night was solid too. Jim and Pam are boring though. Sorry. I honestly thought Michael's relationship with Holly was more entertaining.

Okay, Michael was the biggest asshole that I've ever seen during this last episode. I don't remember him being this insensitive ever before.

Creed: Why haven't we ever..uhm.. Meredith: We have. I thought Meredith was a drunk, shouldn't Creed be the one to remember that? That's all I really remember from that episode.

The last few years of Office were mostly just blah to me, but The Proposal episode totally redeemed itself. It would have been a beautiful series finale with Michael finally getting together with his love Holly and the audience left to ponder what became of The Office.
But nooo NBC had to crap all over that and get greedy and say THIS MUST NOT END!! MONEYMAKER!! The Proposal episode was actually the last episode I saw, I don't care to watch any after that because for me that was the last episode. Just like when Zach Braff's character left Scrubs. Really? You're gonna eliminate the main character and still call the show by the same name? Yeah I stopped watching that show when they did that too. These networks really irritate me because they don't know when to quit, they either go on too long or cancel too quickly.

I used to be a huge supporter of Jim and Pam, but they have grown incredibly annoying to me since they got married. The ones that carry that show are Dwight, Andy, Creed, Kevin, and Ryan (and Kelly when she is involved with Ryan). And the only one of those wo even has face time comparable with Michael is Dwight. Sooo...yeah I give it a year before this show gets canned.

Josh, I don't find 30 Rock to be all that great either. I feel a slight misguided urge to watch it now that my brother works there (the location, not the show.) I guess I'm still waiting to get the joke.
I liked the episode where Dwight was made boss. Great that they changed the opening credits to include Dwight moving his "toy" as Michael did his Dundee. So glad to hear from Moze, even if it was just a scream! Thought that part was hilarious. This episode really brought back the hi-jinks between Dwight and Jim that had kinda fizzled out, and I am glad that Jim gave Dwight the props he deserved at the end. Nuts as Dwight may be, he loves the company and the job and I know he would make a very efficient boss.
When Dwight got the holster, it reminded me of when Angela gave him the Dwight Bobblehead. Same reaction. I seriously miss them being together.
I think next week is the season finale? I know they are going to bring in a bunch of guest stars to make us wonder about the new boss, but I REALLY WISH we could get one episode where Creed is the boss. He is.... awesome. Heres hoping they reference it with some clips or maybe do a webisode of it.
Finally, I know Will Arnett is up for "the new boss." I think he would be great at it. I don't think he can carry a show on his own, (like the one on Fox that was cancelled) but this cast is so strong it would put him more in an Arrested Development type of situation. Yes GOB, you can be the new boss.
Besides, if it is going to be one of the people they have been showing clips of, he is the only one that makes sense. All the other guys that are popping up for the interviews are kinda... mega famous. Except for James Spader. Don't get me wrong, I think of him as mega famous, but I don't think he is getting movie rolls like say, Jim Carrey is right now.
Ugh: I just did a little searching for what the buzz is about who will take over. If they person the web is saying is true. Yuck.
